Halladay would be unreal but I think another team could offer more than Donald/Marson/Happ and maybe Castro.

Phils 'not close' on Mahay

A source with knowledge of the Phillies' trading discussions now says they're "not close" to any deal for left-handed reliever Ron Mahay. They plan to continue to explore all their left-handed relief options.

According to clubs that have been speaking with the Royals, they've been having extensive conversations with the Phillies about a trade that would send Mahay to Philadelphia for shortstop prospect Jason Donald, a member of the U.S. Olympic baseball team.

It's believed that as many as 10 teams have contacted the Royals about Mahay, who is signed for next year at $4 million. Most of them have come away with the impression that the Royals aren't motivated to trade him. But in Donald, the Phillies have a commodity for which Kansas City has been searching aggressively. So the fit appears better with the Phillies than with any of the other teams on the Royals' list.

id hope to believe zolecki. trading a top 3 prospect from a middle reliever = ed wade.

Even though I'm sure there's no validity to the rumor on the last page I've had Halladay wood for a majority of the day.

Mahay would be a solid addition and something they need.

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

Wow - Rollins gets a hit, and Utley hits a homer with 2 outs.

I guess you guys were right about righting the ship against Washington... for now.

SI.com claims Phils lead the Manny sweepstakes

[MDS]

Manny and prospects for Burrell would be just about the dumbest thing they could do. Straight up? I guess.
